Question

Q: Will the bank give me a ā€œNo Duesā€ certificate

Answer

A:

Yes, banks generally issue a ā€œNo Dues Certificateā€ (NDC) or ā€œNo Objection Certificateā€ (NOC) once you have fully repaid your loan or cleared your outstanding dues. Here’s what you should know:


1. What is a No Dues Certificate?

  • It is an official document issued by the bank confirming that you have fully paid your loan and have no outstanding liabilities against the account.

  • This certificate protects you from any future claims or liabilities related to that loan.


2. When Can You Get It?

  • After complete repayment of the principal amount, interest, and any other applicable charges.

  • Sometimes banks may take a few days or weeks to process and issue the certificate.


3. Why is it Important?

  • It acts as proof that you have fulfilled your financial obligation.

  • Essential for removing any lien or hypothecation mark on your property or assets (in case of secured loans).

  • Needed for maintaining a clean credit record.


4. How to Obtain It?

  • Request the certificate from the bank’s loan department after loan closure.

  • Follow up regularly if there is a delay in issuance.

  • Some banks provide it automatically after loan closure, while others require a formal written request.


5. What to Do If Bank Delays Issuing the Certificate?

  • Send a written request or legal notice reminding the bank of your repayment and demand issuance of the certificate.

  • You can escalate the matter to the Banking Ombudsman or consumer court if the bank refuses or delays unjustifiably.
